Van feels sluggish after cam belt change...

Cripes diesels are complicated machines. This needs somebody who knows what they're doing!

California Dreamin cheers !

Ralf85 are you mocking me ? you love my posts !

The more I read about non-turbo diesels the more I am pleased I have a petrol van. My advice is get a trusted garage to sort this mess out! Good luck.

There are far more problems with the petrol engines, more things to go wrong.

We'll see - watch this space!

Yep I got my pump one tooth out first time, lost a bit of power but still ran.
Decided to check pump timing with a dti and adapter, was almost 2mm and not 1mm as it should be, that's when I realised it was a tooth out !
Runs much better now, on a 1.6td

all back to normal !

Timing slightly out....how does a 1.6 diesel go from being sluggish to not so sluggish !

happy again !

Is it? There is still a copper washer issue outstanding I think!
